RJ Barrett (knee) ruled out Wednesday for Raptors
Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
What It Means:
Barrett will sit out the second leg of the Raptors' back-to-back after returning from a multi-game absence on Tuesday. He played 26 minutes and recorded 28 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, and 2 three-pointers. Bruce Brown (knee) is doubtful, so Gary Trent could be busy after resting in the first leg. Jordan Nwora should also take on a larger workload without Barrett.
Trent is averaging 31.0 minutes and 29.8 FanDuel points per game without Barrett this season. Per our NBA Heat Map, the Raptors are the only team on the Main slate with an implied total below 100.0 on Wednesday.
